Army Infantry Shoulder Board

Here we have a nice looking second pattern, slip on type Heer Infantry (Unterfeldwebel) Shoulder Board! It is constructed out of a green wool base that is covered in an (obverse) darker green wool with an outside flatwire diamond patterned NCO’s tress and white waffenfarbe piping, that has all been stitched together. Underneath the tong there is a stitched on blue/grey cotton piece. It all continues to retain nice color. There is one hole where a pip would have been. An excellent piece for your collection!
